Trump administration’s repeal of the Obama-era “endangerment finding” will lower car costs by an average of $2,400 per vehicle, the White House and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) touted Thursday

“The EPA has estimated benefits to the economy from rescinding the endangerment finding for vehicles to be as much as $4.7 trillion for the period 2027-2055. This is a gross underestimate,” Steve Milloy, a former Trump EPA transition adviser and senior fellow at the Energy & Environment Legal Institute

“Because of this move, gas prices will remain low and car prices will decline,” the biostatistician and environmental lawyer added. “Lower gas prices and lower vehicle prices will ripple through the economy for decades to come”

Consumers and businesses also stand to benefit from the deregulation of emissions by being able to redirect money saved on vehicle costs
